Replying to College or Ski?!?

Hey guys…So I'm a senior in HS from MN and I'm graduating in 2 weeks. Everyone is pushing for me to decide what I am going to do next fall. Here's the thing..I don't really feel ready for college yet. And even if I was I don't really want to stay here in MN and go to school because skiing is such an important part of my life and MN doesn't really cut it for me. If all else fails, I would be going to UMD Duluth in MN. They have Spirit Mountain which isn't all that bad but I really want to move out west and experience backcountry and the BIG parks like Keystone and Breck. I don't really want to hop right into college after HS because I am not motivated at all in my current situation. ALL I WANT TO DO IS SKI. I have looked at CMC (Colorado Mountain College) and was thinking that might work because maybe I could go to school part time or something. I just really don't know what to do. I was wondering if anyone else is in my situation and if you guys have any suggestions of what I could do? I know I need to get an education but I also REALLY want to ski as much as I can.

THANKS!
